Great to meet you!

Are you or a loved one going through a major life transition? Have you experienced trauma or serious hardship? Are you ready to come into a better version of yourself? As a holistic psychologist, I work with the mind, body, and spirit. This approach comes from the recognition that everything is interconnected because working with the whole person allows for the deepest level of healing. I am compassionate, intuitive, and direct in my approach.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I work with any age individuals, couples, and families with special emphasis on teenagers & young adults. For Parents: I know it can be a challenge to reach out for help and we all can use support. In working with your loved one I focus on connection to then help heal the inner world.

What you can expect from our first session

Whatever your experience, you can heal your life. I am here to assist you or your loved one to create that genuine possibility. I've been through the darkness of life's hardships and know how to navigate back to the light. Reach out now for assistance.
